Let’s remind ourselves of the Avmed victim with ASD who complained to the ICC about Form 420. Along with the completed form, Avmed asked him to provide:
Medicare consultation and prescription records for the past five years; academic and employment history; copies of any special reports (such as QEEG or neuropsychological testing); previous specialists reports).
That was so Avmed people without specialist qualifications in the subject could engage in solemn deliberations and presume to make judgments about the ‘aeromedical consequences’ of the victim’s ASD.
I say “victim” because – setting aside the confusion and consequential delay and stress created by the botched Form, which confusion was evident to the ICC – the questions were aimed at ADHD and not the opposite end of the spectrum – ASD - but the form was required for either. Hence the substance of the victim’s complaint to the ICC.
That victim won’t be alone.
This went on for years. Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s continuing, despite the disappearing of the Form 420 while “experts” do a “review”. We’re all just guinea pigs to them in their thought-leading pursuit of the safety of air navigation.
The people who do these kinds of things and don’t apologise for the consequences of their overreaching incompetence are a disgrace. So are the CASA executives watching it all happen without comment other than public support. The Board? Anyone know what it does?
